Yes MemoQ, this is how languages work, now leave me alone
For the first time since its inception, I'm happy to report that ALL nominees of #TheGameAwards include #TranslatorsInTheCredits! We've come a long way since the dark days of credit withholding, and none of this would've been possible without your support!
Almost 800k signatures. From thinking it was not doable, to hoping it is. Share, sign. #StopKillingGames
It all started because Ubisoft made disappear The Crew from user's libraries. When we buy a game, we buy the license to use it and it's revocable. This is lost media, cultural loss, and we are at their expense. Claim your rights as consumers. Sign the petition. eci.ec.europa.eu/045/public/#...
The CoLab has officially launched! 🎊 We’re a new indie publisher focused on doing things differently - supporting devs, championing creativity, and building a kinder industry. 💖 Let’s change games for the better! 👾 🌐 www.thecolabgames.com/news/new-ind... #IndieGames #GameDev #TheCoLab
Sigh. Not surprised, but credit your translators dammit
Looks like the translation and LQA were handled by completely uncredited and likely perma-NDA-bound freelancers at DICO and Keywords.
Our favourite game from last Gamescom, PLAY IT AND LOVE IT!
😺 OUR GAME IS OUT TODAY ON PC! 😺 🐈⬛ 🕵️ Cat Detective Albert Wilde, a noir puppet sci-fi mystery adventure about a feline PI who discovers a wormhole in spacetime. It’s a comedy! Launch Trailer: youtu.be/qNeUxX_IOnU Check now on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/1810670/
All we want for Christmas is: - More indie games localized in Italian! - More games that push the boundaries of the medium! - More chances for our colleagues to showcase their craft, instead of wasting their skill on MT slop! - Fair pay and proper crediting for EVERYBODY in the game industry!
Our very first collective work - the Italian localization for the gorgeous Nine Sols by Red Candle Games - is now live! Seeing our names on the screen under the PorcaLoc banner is the best feeling and deserves a very loud and proud HONK!
Our collective of freelance Italian translators just saw their first project live. Delivering the localization of Nine Sols is one of those milestones that makes you dream even bigger. Honks up to more credits like this! 🪿🎮 #indiegame #localization #italian
If you're a writer, translator, editor, anyone who works in writing, then you should read. Read novels, short stories, articles, non-fiction, anything. Just read.
